In today’s Stratasys blog video we have for you another ‘first’ from the world of multi-material 3D printing. This time we’ve created a functioning keyboard using the Objet Connex 3D printer. Using the system’s multi-material 3D p…

It never ceases to amaze people that you can actually grow things like this Ferris Wheel, from nothing, with all the moving parts already assembled together – and simply take it out of the 3D printer, give it a wash and start using it! This little baby w…

We’re live blogging from Euromold 2012, where Objet have today released their largest-ever 3D printer – the Objet1000. This system features a 1000 x 800 x 500 mm build volume – this is an astonishing 10 times the build volume of the next larg…

Not only was today’s video blog post filmed on my smart phone – it also features some unique smart phone cases, designed by Danny Tasmakis and all 3D printed on the Objet Connex system! Check out the tiny inter-locking gear wheels – a testame…

As we spoke about in this previous blog post, there remain a number of technological gaps between what we know as 3D content and 3D printing. Computer animation is one such area. The video above shows how articulated deformable characters from computer animati…

This past May, I was fortunate enough to see up close Architect and MIT Professor Neri Oxman’s exhibit entitled ‘Imaginary Beings, Mythologies of the Not Yet’ at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. Her exhibit, which features 18 prototypes of the…

Octopod Created on the Objet Connex Multi-Material 3D Printer Octopod – Featuring Rubber-like and Rigid Material Combinations This has to be one of the most incredibly lovingly-detailed 3D printed models I have ever seen! These pictures show a 3D printed mecha…

We just put this short video together to visually explain 3D printing. We managed to get it down to 37 seconds – using minimal text explanations. It spans the typical product design process starting from the initial product concept or idea that a designe…
